Your Iranian Law Contact

Looking for an Iranian lawyer?

An overseas address does not remove the need to deal with Iranian legal questions. You may have inherited a property in Iran, need a representative for an Iranian proceeding, be reviewing a contract with an Iranian company or require an explanation of Iranian law for a foreign court. Start with the issue and the connection to Iran; we identify the appropriate service and agree the scope before work begins.

Choosing between Iranian lawyers

When comparing Iranian lawyers, ask who will handle the instruction, what Iranian professional qualification they hold, which documents they need and what the written fee covers. Litigation, independent expert evidence, legal research and document coordination involve different responsibilities. Dr. Moini’s professional background and the service descriptions below help you decide whether to enquire.

Iranian law firm support for overseas clients

If you are looking for an Iranian law firm to assist from abroad, explain where the parties and assets are located and whether there is an existing court deadline. Depending on the matter, work may involve remote document review, a task-specific power of attorney or proceedings in Iran. Acceptance, representation and any required local coordination are confirmed for the individual instruction.

Iranian lawyer for clients in Dubai and the UAE

Searching for an Iranian lawyer in Dubai may reflect a need to manage a legal matter in Iran while living or doing business in the UAE. PAD assists UAE-based clients with Iran-related instructions, including property, inheritance, contracts and company matters. Our published UAE contact address is in Sharjah; this page does not claim a Dubai office or UAE court advocacy rights. Initial discussions can take place remotely.
